I had the same "How do I filter this list stuff into its own folder?" reaction.

But with careful examination, I found a header "X-Authentication-Warning:" 
that contains "[email protected]" which is unique and which my 
(ancient) Eudora 4.2 can find with a filter, and it works great for me.

Putting a filter key in the Subject is also OK, but perhaps not required. 
I looked first in the TO: and Subject: headers, but had to do a bit of study 
to find something that works.  Fortunately, X-**** headers appear can seen 
and used by filters.  

I also now note that the TO: Header contains the string "mail-ng". 

Cheers...\Stef
